IF (-4,6) is on the terminal side of theta what are the 6 trig functions.
visualize a circle with center at (0,0) where a point on the circle is at (-4,6)
This gives a right triangle where the x-coordinate(-4) is the adjacent side and y-coordinate(6) is the opposite sidee. The hypotenuse then=√(4^2+6^2)=√(16+36)=√52
6 trig functions as follows:
sin=6/√52
cos=-4/√52
tan=-6/4
csc=√52/6
sec=-√52/4
cot=-4/6
